Chanel Girl Bag and Co.

As part of my Prestige instagram takeover, I passed by Chanel's boutique to check out what's new. I spotted two different versions of Chanel's most unusual bags, the Chanel Girl Bag (one is featured here). I saw the plain leather one and I think it looks like something you'd find at a flea market, and I say this with good intention. I would buy it (the plain one that is) if the price was reasonable. I'm honestly not willing to spend more than KD 300 for this style. Call me cheap but I just don't feel the bag has that longevity factor. Also, doesn't that Girl Bag look like something from Moschino's designs?

The other Chanel bag that I really really liked is the one featured in the 2nd photo above. IF only it came in leather instead of that khaki green dirty canvas material. My sister thinks that I looked like an old lady, especially with my white flawy dress, but I would buy it at a heartbeat if it came in buttery soft caramel leather. Oh well, I'm moving on….

Miu Miu Pays Tribute to the Middle East

Everyone who knows me, knows that I have a soft spot for bag charms. They're fun, cute, and add a dose of irresistible character to your plain handbag. So when I got the news about Miu Miu paying tribute to the Middle Eastern culture by presenting an exclusive playful yet multifunctional accessories in luxurious precious skin, I got excited intrigued. The round-shaped charms has the Arabic alphabet, each piece presenting a letter design with metallic hues and vibrant colors. They're cute, nothing groundbreaking. I'm not sure if these bags charms would step up my bag charms game, but I guess it depends on their price tag and how "exclusively" exclusive they are. Maybe they'll grow on me? I don't know... What do you think? The charms should be available exclusively in Miu Miu Boutiques throughout our region.

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare. This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
